Youth Classes

Out of the four class sessions we run in a given year, the Spring and Fall culminate in a stage Recital, while the Winter session culminates in a Dance Cup recital.

The Spring and Fall stage Recitals are usually a mega production held at the prestigious Rachel Schlesinger Concert Hall with over 250 performers, more than 30 choreography pieces and a crowd exceeding 1,000 people in attendance.

Make-Ups: Enrolled students who miss a class can do a Make Up by attending any other class, as long as it's within the same session.

Session fees are non-refundable and non-transferable.

-Make-Ups must be completed within the same session and do not transfer over

to future sessions

-Classes may be canceled without prior notice. Proper reimbursement will be issued.

Class Types

Group classes offered at Born 2 Dance Studio are either Enrollment-Session or Open-Session classes, as described below:

1) Enrollment-Session Classes

Enrollment-Session Classes are simply Group Classes that require "enrollment" in the entire session, as opposed to just showing up to class periodically. The reason being is that Enrollment-Session classes are cumulative in nature. They focus heavily on "technique" and on building the core foundation for the dance style, and therefore, what you learn in one week's class becomes imperative for the next.

By policy, students have up until the third week of class to enroll in the session. After that, registration is closed to new students, unless instructor's permission is granted.

We strive to ensure that our students enjoy their classes without the added inconvenience of new students joining in late in the session, so please do your best to register early and within the noted deadline.

Open-session classes are non-cumulative and do not require enrollment. While students can enroll in an entire Open-Session, they are also allowed to just "drop in" and attend one class at a time only paying for that single class ($20 per drop-in.)

Of course enrolling in an Open-Session class is cheaper than just attending one drop-in at at time (averages out to $15 per class vs. $20 for drop-ins.)

Open-Session classes focus on teaching a new routine or set of movements in every class, so that students can attend one class at a time and still benefit from each class individually.

All parents/students are encouraged to provide their feedback about classes, instructors or about our studio in general, using the Suggestion Box at the front desk or by contacting us . We value our students' feedback and are constantly improving our dance studio to meet their demands.

*Session-Class fees are neither refundable nor transferable

*Classes may be canceled due to low enrollment.

*The cut-off date for registration in Enrollment-Session Classes is three weeks after the start of the session

Do you offer Drop-in classes?Yes! We offer both session as well as drop-in dance classes. Our "Open-Session Classes " allow drop-ins. The same applies for our "Workshops."

Do you offer Youth or Kids classes? In addition to our Adult Classes, we also offer classes for all age groups. Our Youth Classes include specialized classes for Tots (ages 3-5,) Juniors (ages 6-10) and Teens (ages 11-15.) All our Youth classes are taught by pre-screened professional instructors and are customized specifically for that age group, with the goal of promoting active participation and structured learning.

What if I miss one of the classes in a Session?Students can make up for missed classes in a session by attending 1) a technique class within the same dance style, at the same level or below OR 2) an "Open-Session" class of any dance style. All missed classes must be made up during the current session.
